Kindergarten  

We look forward to welcoming new families and siblings to current students, to Kindergarten. 

Starting school is an important step in a child’s life.  At St Georges Basin Public School, we believe in the importance of strong home/school, teacher/parent partnerships from the very first day of your child’s schooling. 

Kindergarten Transition Program

For this reason, we organise a Kindergarten transition program, which includes informal playgroup sessions prior to our orientation mornings where parents get to know eachother & the children get to experience coming into big school. 

The transition program provides opportunities for children starting Kindergarten to settle into a school routine, meet teachers, mix with groups of other children and engage in both structured and unstructured learning activities. 

The playgroup sessions and Kindergarten Orientation mornings will be held in Term 4. Our Kindergarten Orientation Program includes information sessions for parents and classroom time for children.

We also hold a Kindergarten Parent Information session late October, right after you drop your child off for their very first Orientation session!

This session runs for about an hour where we share helpful insights into what your child can expect on their first day at St Georges Basin Public School. We’ll share all the details about school routines, ensuring that your little one feels happy and safe as they embark on this new adventure.

This session is a great way for parents and families to gear up for the exciting journey ahead in big school. 

Dates and times for all of our Playgroup, Orientation & Parent Information sessions will be provided around July each year.  Enrolments start around August each year. 

Please contact the school if you require any information regarding enrolling your child on 02 4443 4251.
